People castigating the OP should know that not all banks sends Bank Balance, rather they send the amount credited and some few write ups...

Eg First Bank

Take Heart Bro, i pray you get this guy, its quite painful that someone would be doing stuffs legit online and making it, while an able youth would sit down and strategise on how to dupe his fellow man... Sad

You can track through your IMEI number and people also suggested using the iPhone locator... Just try your best, i hate the word SCAM because i have fallen a victim before. You will surely get him!

DedeNkem:


WOW. That was a really smart thief. What he did was very brilliant indeed. This is a new one!

How he created a number that displayed Wemabank on receiver's phone when he sent the text is very interesting. This can only be possible if he had an accomplice who works at a mobile service company. Or he works at a mobile service company.

Telecommunication companies only do that for companies, not for individuals!

Vicrobor:

Not true. First Bank sends your balance.

princeuwanile:
NA U MUMU PASS. DONT U KNOW UR BALANCE IN UR ACCOUNT. U SHOULD KNOW THAT WHEN U DEPOSIT THE BANK GIVES U ALERT ON UR BALANCE

Opetunde1:

First thing you should have done and should do now is lock down the phone...it's an iphone, if you didn't disable the icloud but just logged in, you can lock down the phone. So it becomes totally and absolutely useless to the scammer. Then you can use find my iPhone, to locate the phone: even if the phone is off, if properly configured, an iphone would upload it's exact last location to icloud just as the battery is about to die.
Couple of things I noticed about your scammer: he's not a newbie...he planned well. He's numba isn't on truecaller, which would also possibly mean that number ain't registered to his actual identity. So getting his details from the telecommunication companies would most likely lead to a dead end. Plus there are places you can go to where pre-registered sims are sold, he could be using one of such. However, the telecom companies would definitely be able to track down the location of the number by pinging it...this however, you cannot achieve on your own. You'll have to:
1). Report the matter at a police station close to where the incident happened (not just any police station o, 1closest to where the incident happened)
2). Go to court and swear an affidavit, stating what happened.
3). Return back to the police station where the incident was reported to get a police report.
4). Write a letter to the telecom company hosting the number and personally submit it to their head office, armed with the police report and affidavit...the letter should request for the data history and geo-location of the number in question. Please note, you would most likely require the services of a lawyer or a learned and knowledgeable police officer for this final step cos you might need a court order or a warrant before the telco would release this information.
Another thing you can do is try to run a trace using the IMEI of the phone...if you have it.
Sorry4ur loss. You got tricked by a cleverly crafted internet/bulk sms. Whilst you were thinking he was logging into his account to initiate transfer, what he was actually doing was modifying the sms (inserting the amount, your bank name and account details). For those who say you should have noticed cos your account balance wasn't shown: not all banks state account balances...I don't know how Wema does it, but I know not all banks mention balances in sms alerts.
